Concise News understands that the accident occurred as the copter left the stadium following a Premier League match on Saturday.

The club had in a statement on Sunday announced that the Leicester Chairman and others who boarded the copter had died.

Reacting to the development, Ndidi who plays for the English club, as well as his compatriot, Kelechi Iheananacho, also a player for the Foxes, and Ahmed Musa (a former forward of the side), took to Twitter to mourn the late Srivaddhanaprabha.
